Recorded live from Bourbon and Baby Teeth 2021 in Louisville, Kentucky!
Diane Krueger is the founder and CEO of NuSmile. She founded the company in 1991 after noticing a demand from pediatric dentists for more esthetic options for restoring primary teeth. We discuss how the company has exploded since that time, expanding their product lines to include zirconia crowns, SSCs, and MTA-based products.
Diane talks about how NuSmile has evolved as a company, different types of techniques involved in the fabrication of crowns, and how the industry has changed over time. We do a cost-analysis of how using a more affordable SSC can translate into substantial material savings over the course of a pediatric dentist's typical year. We also talk about how NeoPutty is changing the way MTA is used, and its clinical applications.
Diane was a great guest and I enjoyed learning more about what goes into creating their products. Check them out at https://www.nusmile.com/
